| Rochvellon | hiho. I've got a problem with audio. As a user I cannot use the audio device even though the user is in the group audio. If I run aplay with sudo it's not a problem. As user there is no device listet in settings -> Audio. Running "aplay -l" as a user there is the same output as running with sudo. Using 20.04. Any ideas? | 02:15 |
| dho | Curious if anyone's familiar with configuring a dual stack router on ubuntu. It seems that netplan.io makes prefix delegation impossible, and I haven't really done much in the way of system configuration/administration in about 15 years. Feeling a bit lost. | 02:25 |
| foxide | dho: Sure. netplan just isn't suited for those functions. systemd-networkd, however, supports DHCPv6-PD out of the box. | 02:29 |
| foxide | So basically you're just cutting out the middleman. | 02:30 |
| dho | Thanks. Is it enough for me to enable forwarding, configure a prefix delegation, and set up radvd? Or am I missing something else? | 02:42 |

| Chr15P_1968 | Hi, I need to configure grub2 to ask for a login when you want to edit any of the menu entries, The only guides I could find requires you to use a username and password when the system boots. We are moving from Centos to Ubuntu so I'm a bit new to the Ubuntu way of things, was a simple excersize on grub that ships with Centos to achieve what I | 07:30 |
| Chr15P_1968 | needed. Is there a way in grub2 that ships with Ubuntu 20.04? | 07:30 |
| guiverc | zmagii, i did some testing a few cycles back on various boxes with lxqt-backlight, lxqt-config-brightness etc and the results varied depending on chipset in use.. ie. it maybe dependent on your hardware being used (no one solution fits all, at least on the 16 devices I used for tesing); some had no control over external display, same command on different hardware had control.. | 07:36 |
| deki_01 | Hi to all! | 08:12 |
| deki_01 | I have aVirtualBox Ubuntu-VM and if I connect to the git someetime it works sometime not, than I have to disable and enable again the network and than it works again do I have to add something to the /etc/network/interface? | 08:15 |
| SteelRose | deki_01: which network type are you using? | 08:22 |
| deki_01 | SteelRose: NATservice and Bridged | 08:24 |
| Chr15P_1968 | Yeah, looks like I'm buggered with grub2 protecting menuentries, tried a coupe more things and all fails | 08:25 |
| deki_01 | so if i like to connect via ssh to the VM I use the bridged, and if I have to push to the git I have to disable the Bridged and stop/start the the Natservice | 08:26 |
| SteelRose | deki_01: use NAT or Bridged ... | 08:26 |
| deki_01 | so I can not use both at the same time | 08:27 |
| SteelRose | deki_01: Bridged should be enough then for your needs: 1. you can ssh into the box, 2. you can access the internet | 08:27 |
| SteelRose | deki_01: I always use only one type of network and it works well | 08:27 |
| deki_01 | SteelRose: Thanks I will try that, it works somethimes I have to use both so I have to disable the one | 08:30 |

| Chr15P_1968 | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/K3yzDyM8DM/ | 10:36 |
| ikonia | why does that not work in Ubuntu, it looks inline with the standard grub approach https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/Authentication-and-authorisation.html | 10:38 |
| Chr15P_1968 | the 01_user file doesn't exist, update-grub doesn't recognize the file either. also the grub2-setpassword doesnt exist | 10:41 |
| ikonia | create the file ? grub2-setpassword isn't that a link to passwd_pbkdf2 | 10:43 |

| Koopz | alright you guys i'm trying to virtualize a really old server running 10.04.4 LTS | 11:53 |
| Koopz | so i made a backup of the still living machine and put it on our NAS, now i'm failing at mounting the NAS on the VM | 11:54 |
| ikonia | ok ? | 11:54 |
| Koopz | because i need cifs-utils and obviously all repositories are down | 11:55 |
| ikonia | if you've virtualised the image - it will contain the right packages | 11:56 |
| ikonia | you won't need anything | 11:56 |
| ikonia | also look at the old-releases URL | 11:56 |
| ikonia | see if the repos still exist | 11:56 |
| Koopz | the backup is not a direct image of the machine | 11:57 |
| Koopz | we made a fresh install of 10.04.4 and plan to tar -x the backup onto that | 11:57 |
| Koopz | oh nvm i currently have DNS issues | 12:00 |
| Koopz | is it normal to have no /etc/resolv.conf? | 12:00 |
| ikonia | no | 12:02 |
| ikonia | and you should %1000000000 not tar xvf over the top of a system | 12:02 |
| ikonia | that would be a terrible solution unless it's just data | 12:02 |
| Koopz | i'm actually just following internal documentations i'm very aware this is very stupid :D | 12:03 |

| rory | What is it about the version of "grep" that ships with Ubuntu that causes it to recurse on the current directory when "grep -r foo" is used? | 13:57 |
| rory | as opposed to the BSD version that comes with OSX, *or* the GNU version that comes via Brew (what prompted my question as I assumed the GNU version was what Ubuntu shipped) | 13:57 |
| rory | I mean so you don't have to say "grep -r foo ." | 13:58 |
| ikonia | it is the gnu version | 14:04 |
| ikonia | gnu has always been grep string path | 14:04 |
| rory | Right but on Ubuntu you can omit the path and it assumes PWD | 14:05 |
| rory | whereas the "GNU Grep" in Brew requires you to explicitly put the path | 14:05 |
| rory | So I was wondering who deviated, and what the story is | 14:06 |
| ikonia | rory: same behaviour on all the gnu builds I've got from debian, ubuntu, rhel and centos (not got a suse box to hand) | 14:06 |
| rory | you're saying when you run "grep -r test" it sits and waits for input rather than recursively grepping whatever directory you're in for "test" ? | 14:07 |
| ikonia | rory: no, when I run grep -r test it start from cwd | 14:07 |
| rory | So it's more likely the "GNU Grep" in Homebrew has been patched to give behaviour more similar to what OSX users expect | 14:08 |
| ikonia | no idea, I'm that used to having to do grep string path (like you) that I've never had to not include path so never noticed it | 14:08 |
| ikonia | but the behaviour is the same all all the gnu linux grep builds I've got to hand | 14:09 |
| rory | That was my real question tbh. Who is the "real" GNU Grep, and it sounds like it's definitely what Ubuntu ships | 14:09 |
| Patrick_ | redhat | 14:09 |
| Patrick_ | slackware | 14:09 |
| rory | That anecdotal evidence means a lot too. I have my answer. | 14:09 |
| Patrick_ | im running slackware | 14:09 |
| Patrick_ | jk | 14:09 |
| rory | well you are named Patrick_ :) | 14:09 |
| Patrick_ | slackware 1997\ | 14:09 |
| ikonia | rory: read the gnu man page | 14:09 |
| ikonia | it's expected behaviour | 14:09 |
| ikonia | <quote> Note that if no file operand is given, grep searches the working directory. </quote> | 14:10 |
| Patrick_ | redhat 1.2 | 14:10 |
| rory | ikonia, interesting, the manpage that comes with Homebrew GNU Grep also keeps that line... but the behaviour is different. But it's offtopic now. | 14:11 |
| ikonia | indeed | 14:12 |
| rory | tl;dr - OSX is odd | 14:12 |

| longshanks | hi. i have a headset for web meetings. I can't seem to get the microphone that is built into it work as an input device in Ubuntu 20.10. Any pointers? | 14:13 |
| rory | hi longshanks is it a bluetooth headset? | 14:15 |
| rory | longshanks, go to Sound preferences, go to Hardware tab. Select your headset from the device list. Make sure the Profile dropdown is set to "duplex" and not "output" | 14:15 |
| longshanks | rory: it's a wired one via 3.5mm jack | 14:16 |
| longshanks | corsair HS-35 | 14:16 |
| longshanks | rory: Does your advice still apply? | 14:16 |
| rory | is it a single 3.5mm jack? | 14:17 |
| longshanks | yes | 14:17 |
| rory | advice still applies for whatever is in the device list in Hardware tab of Sound preferences. Your on-board sound device. | 14:19 |
| rory | confirm it's duplex and not output. | 14:19 |
| rory | Question zero: do you know your computer has a 3.5mm port than works as both an input and output simultaneously? | 14:20 |

| rory | Probably is, come to #ubuntu-offtopic and find out | 14:26 |

| herol3oy | hi. how can i create a live usb from my currently installed ubuntu on my laptop? | 14:33 |
| lotuspsychje | !usb | herol3oy | 14:35 |
| ubottu | herol3oy: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 14:35 |
| rory | herol3oy, do you mean to create a live USB in order to install a fresh Ubuntu ? If so then ^ | 14:35 |
| herol3oy | no no | 14:35 |
| rory | herol3oy, if you want to convert your installation to a persistent live environment, I don't think that's possible nowadays | 14:35 |
| coredumb1 | well not easily at least | 14:36 |
| herol3oy | create a clone to a usb from my currently installed ubuntu on my laptop and use it as live operating system? | 14:36 |
| longshanks | rory: on configuration tab in pavucontrol i only see Built-in Audio, not the plugged-in device. the built-in audio is set to analogue stero duplex but i dont see the hardware for the headset to set that identically. | 14:36 |
| rory | Anything you do find would be very out of date, probably not work, and would involve horrible hacks | 14:36 |
| rory | It's better to make a new persistent live USB, and try to set it up the same as your current one - possibly by copying your entire home directory (which contains settings for your user) | 14:37 |
| rory | e.g. if you copied your entire home directory in this way, you'd keep your browser history and everything | 14:37 |
| herol3oy | rory, thanks ;) | 14:38 |
| rory | longshanks, that's fine, the only entry will be internal audio. | 14:39 |
| rory | I was hoping it wouldn't be set to duplex, that makes this a Not So Trivial problem | 14:39 |
| longshanks | Eek | 14:41 |
| rory | longshanks, On the Input Devices tab in pavucontrol are there multiple options in the "Port" dropdown? | 14:43 |
| rory | e.g. to select between integrated mic and 3.5mm jack | 14:43 |
| longshanks | So in that tab, in that dropdown we have: Line-in (unplugged) or Microphone. | 14:44 |
| tmm88 | heyho | 14:45 |
| rory | longshanks, can you run this command to show audio hardware: aplay --list-devices | 14:46 |
| rory | longshanks, share the longest line, it'll look something like: card 0: I82801AAICH [Intel 82801AA-ICH], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel 82801AA-ICH] | 14:46 |
| rory | if there are more than one "card 0" / "card 1" share all of them | 14:46 |
| longshanks | rory: card 0: MID [HDA Intel MID], device 0: CS4206 Analog [CS4206 Analog] | 14:48 |

| TJ- | Do we have a tool to compare package Depends: between releases and highlight problems on the earlier release (to help identify issues when needing to backport a package) ? | 18:00 |
| pizzaburger | Hi! I've got an ASUS OS200 USB-C dongle to connect my external monitor. All the ports work except the video ones (HDMI and VGA). Went to the site to get drivers and there's only Windows ones. Is there any way to make this dongle work running Ubuntu 20.10? Thanks! | 18:01 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: check the kernel log for clues as to whether the devices are showing up in any way | 18:03 |
| === ijohnson is now known as ijohnson|lunch | ||
| ikonia | TJ-: there used to be a tool that could compare the release notes between packages, but I think it was hard to maintain as the release note format/structure changed a few times | 18:10 |
| ikonia | it was quite a long time ago | 18:10 |
| ikonia | I'm not sure there is anything current like that | 18:10 |
| TJ- | rmadison and chdist do the basic package version stuff, but not found a tool to actually compare the Depends as declared in the debian/control file | 18:11 |
| TJ- | I'm investigating backporting network-manager-gnome from hirsute to focal to add nm-connection-editor support for Wireguard tunnels in the GUI | 18:13 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: I ran "tail -f /var/log/kern.log", here's the partial output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kcVqGB22Nx/ . The "SerialNumber: 0000051B9A0D25" is the hub in question | 18:24 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: problem is likely elated to "pcieport 0000:04:02.0: BAR 15: no space for" | 18:27 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: show us "pastebinit <( sudo lspci -vvnnk )" with the hub connected | 18:28 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BQ9Wx2cScV/ | 18:29 |
| Rochvellon | I've got a problem with audio. As a user I cannot use the audio device even though the user is in the group audio. If I run "aplay some.wav" with sudo it's not a problem. As user there is no device listet in settings -> Audio. Running "aplay -l" as a user there is the same output as running with sudo. Using 20.04. Any ideas? | 18:30 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Sorry, I have another hub plugged in too, let me unplug that and repaste | 18:31 |

| pizzaburger | Back | 18:36 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: the lack of address space to map those BARs (Base Address Register) entries is the problem. Try adding "pci=realloc" to the kernel command line on a reboot | 18:36 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: each PCI(e) device has a configuration part of which lists ranges of address space it requires to be mapped into the host address space. That system has run out of sufficient space on the host to map to | 18:37 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: Would a clean reinstall of Ubuntu 20.10 partially solve the issue? | 18:38 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: if realloc doesn't help, you might beed to play with "pci=hpmemsize=XXXX" where XXXX is some address-space size e.g. 2G | 18:38 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: no | 18:38 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: your problem is all those PCIe bridges requiring to map address space and the host has no large enough spaces available when that device is being probed | 18:39 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: an option that might help more is "pci=skip_isa_align" which will avoid unused gaps in the address space that are too small for the requested allocations | 18:41 |

| Simon12345 | Anyone handy with basic scripting questions? Having trouble with environment variables. | 18:54 |
| Simon12345 | Setting an environment variable as a commandline argument which is a path to a file, and it's acting weird. | 18:55 |
| Simon12345 | http://pastie.org/p/0deXg0kbL7iQDokK3PA4Su | 18:55 |
| Simon12345 |  if I do a printenv, it looks exactly as it should when I set it, but I can't pass it as an app launch argument. does the same with nano, so a don't think it's the app. | 18:55 |
| ikonia | try #bash | 18:56 |
| ikonia | (I'm assuming you're writing a bash script) | 18:56 |
| Simon12345 | yes | 18:56 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: does it contain spaces? if so /app/liquidsoap "$LIQUIDSOAP_SCRIPT" | 18:57 |
| Simon12345 | no spaces | 18:57 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: so what does "line 1" actually contain, since that is where the error appears to be | 18:58 |
| Simon12345 | It does the on the bash console also. | 18:58 |
| Simon12345 | if I just type /app/liquidsoap $LIQUIDSOAP_SCRIPTÂ Â I get the same issue. | 18:59 |
| Simon12345 | if I type nano $LIQUIDSOAP_SCRIPTÂ that also fails and looks like it's trying to edit a directory | 18:59 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: so is there a syntax error in /music/gm.lic ? | 18:59 |
| Simon12345 | no, nano fails also | 18:59 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: is gm.lic a file? | 18:59 |
| Simon12345 | yes | 19:00 |
| Simon12345 | in a mounted share called /music | 19:00 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: so you've a directory /music/ off the root of the file system? | 19:00 |
| Simon12345 | I can type the command literal without environment and it's fine. | 19:00 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: how is the variable being set? it may contain invisible control codes | 19:00 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: try "echo $LIQUIDSOAP_SCRIPT | hexdump -C" and look carefully | 19:01 |
| Simon12345 | It's inside a docker container without internet access, and no hexdump command :-( | 19:02 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: sometimes UTF-8 characters can be mistaken for very similar-looking ASCII characters, and only examining the byte values reveals that | 19:02 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: I just noticed your pastebin shows a typo - when it works you've got gm.liq but your variable has gm.lic | 19:04 |
| TJ- | Simon12345: Q vs C | 19:05 |
| Simon12345 | Gutted. That fixed it.  You won't believe how many times I looked at that code! | 19:07 |
| Simon12345 | the random error message it gave (and not "file not found") threw me. | 19:07 |
| Simon12345 | Many thanks.  A new set of eyes. | 19:09 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: Ok back. So I've done two things - grabbed a spare laptop so I don't have to drop off, and realized I don't know how to access the kernel command line | 19:56 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: at boot-time? Get to the GRUB menu and edit the entry, which for BIOS boots means either holding down Shift key as soon as BIOS hands over to GRUB, or for both BIOS and UEFI boot modes, tapping Esc key at that moment (UEFI doesn't have the ability to report toggle-mode keys (shift, ctrl, alt) | 19:58 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: Moreover, I have another USB-C hub which has HDMI working fine, but it "shuts off" pretty frequently, disconnecting everything that's plugged in it. That's the reason behind testing this other new hub which doesn't work via HDMI and VGA ports | 19:58 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: once you've got to the GRUB menu, you'll see the 'default' entry first, press 'e' to edit it, navigate down to the line beginning "linux ..." and add the options on the end, space separated, then press Ctrl+X to execute the kernel with those options one-time (they are not saved for subsequent boots) | 20:00 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Furthermore, there's a Linux Firmware Update on GRUB which doesn't work; AND also the 3.5mm audo jack on the laptop emmits a static noise when connected to speakers, but only if there's no sound playing. The sound is gone if I run a Whonix GW/WS setup. | 20:00 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: the other way to do it is boot to Ubuntu, edit the file /etc/default/grub and add the options to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="..." string, save, then do "update-grub" | 20:00 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: A year or so ago you've also mentioned that I might have some thermal issues too... | 20:01 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: did I? I struggle to recall what I was doing yesterday! | 20:01 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: did you ever try the acpi_osi= workaround? https://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 20:02 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: No I haven't, thanks! Gimme a sec to do those kernel commands | 20:08 |

| TJ- | pizzaburger: no, that is the UEFI (motherboard) manual boot menu... GRUB would be loaded by that when you boot Ubuntu but that doesn't show an Ubuntu install | 20:22 |

| === ijohnson|lunch is now known as ijohnson | ||
| TJ- | pizzaburger: I'm not sure that'll help but it ought to cause the other address space users to cuddle up leaving more large spaces for the thunderbolt-usbc hub | 20:32 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: this is a classic case of anti-social distancing :) | 20:32 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Didn't work ;\ | 20:33 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: try the pci=realloc next | 20:34 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: in fact use them both! | 20:34 |
| TJ- | pci=realloc,skip_isa_align | 20:34 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: just to confirm, I have the hub plugged in at all times, right? | 20:34 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: it shouldn't matter when it is connected | 20:35 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: after each boot check the kernel log, see if those same BAR errors are reported - we could be swapping one error for a different one | 20:35 |
| pizzaburger | @TJ-: Could you please remind me where to see the chat's logs? Trying to grab that tails -F log command I was using earlier, haha | 20:42 |

| TJ- | pizzaburger: yes, you can do that :) | 20:45 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Seems no errors: paste.ubuntu.com/p/RTV2h7xvMh | 20:46 |
| BWhitten | hi, I'm hunting down a lack of performance writing to my SD card in Linux vs Windows and I am digging into trace points http://codepad.org/3KpUy9JA what other tools might help finding out where the throughput is going.

| sarnold | SynfulAck: one or more of these governors is usually considered to be absolute garbage, I can't recall which one though | 21:23 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, is there a way to just turn it off? | 21:31 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: you can switch to performance, that'll run at full clock all the time | 21:31 |
| SynfulAck | What does the default 2004 ubuntu do? sarnold | 21:31 |
| SynfulAck | You wouldnt want to run at full clock all the time. | 21:32 |
| leftyfb | SynfulAck: do you mean 20.04? | 21:32 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, ya | 21:32 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, leftyfb when i set it at performance cpufreq reports 798 MHz | 21:34 |
| SynfulAck | unless some sort of restart is required or something | 21:34 |
| leftyfb | SynfulAck: are you having issues with your pc? | 21:35 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, not that I am aware of. I just noticed the cpu capped at 798 then started questioning if things where running slowly. | 21:36 |
| leftyfb | SynfulAck: do you notice things running slowly? | 21:36 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: i think it's a bit complicated; many systems try to use intel's pstate governor, other systems get other governors .. | 21:37 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, maybe, its not something i paid much attention to until i switched over to firefox and cycling through all the tabs to load them. | 21:37 |
| sarnold | cpupower frequency-info may report something intersting | 21:38 |
| ruedii | Running at full speed all the time means you just hit thermal throttling. This isn't 10 years ago, don't do that. | 21:38 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, what utility? | 21:38 |
| sarnold | linux-tools-common: /usr/bin/cpupower | 21:39 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, sarnold only thing that sticks out is current policy says 500 MHz https://pastebin.com/tf3Hqb9J | 21:42 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: well now *that* is curious | 21:43 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: arch forums (I know I know..) suggest either (a) need to apply firmware updates (b) it's possible TLP is misconfigured | 21:46 |
| sarnold | alas they're a bit vague on the second point | 21:46 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, how do i do a firmwire update? | 21:46 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: hopefully, just "sudo fwupdmgr update" | 21:47 |
| sarnold | not all vendors participate though :( | 21:47 |
| SynfulAck | man thats weird, figured ubuntu software update would of taken care of everything | 21:47 |
| SynfulAck | did know that was a thing | 21:48 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, just says system firmware and uefi device firmware has no avail updates. | 21:48 |
| sarnold | hmm. I don't know if that's good news or not :) hehe | 21:50 |
| sarnold | I *think* the gui software update thingy will offer to install updates, I'm not sure, I've not go that installed | 21:50 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, Did or anyone ping me after you sent the "I think the gui" message? | 22:07 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: no | 22:08 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, ok well. I booted into windows after i broke my internet connection trying to connect to my openvpn access server and couldnt kill it. Windows had a range of cpu speeds. And now after i logged back into ubuntu my cpu isnt stuck at 798 anymore | 22:10 |
| SynfulAck | dunno wtf is up with that. Maybe setting the govenor requires a restart | 22:10 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: *very* curious | 22:10 |
| sarnold | SynfulAck: I'm glad you're not stuck there, but I hate not knowing *why* things are broken | 22:10 |
| SynfulAck | sarnold, yeah, not a fan of curious. I just want things to work. OpenVPN Access server and configurations are already annoying enough. | 22:10 |
| SynfulAck | ya, reminds me of windows. | 22:11 |
